When I was a kid and the Mets never made the playoffs, my dad would instead celebrate with my brother and me every time the Yankees got eliminated by letting us explode a bottle of soda in the driveway. It’s my favorite family tradition

My dad is so special in so many ways but passing down his love of baseball with a side of pettiness is my favorite

I called my dad this morning and he answered the phone with “Hello! It’s a beautiful day” and we talked about how much we hate the Yankees and now my heart is so happy
